Wikipedia is an MMORPG

Here’s one from Stack Overflow that annoyed me recently: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16023637/difference-betw.... The question is quite sane (there are these two similar options in GCC, how do they differ?), but it was closed as being “ambiguous”.

Closed as you say, but the question was still answered so what's the problem.

Poorly, but I digress. I see no reason to close the question. I see multiple people voting to do so a disconnect from the people deciding this.

The problem is: what if it was closed before it got the answer? Closed questions can’t receive answers.
